Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Desmodus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

These will eat meat as a baby but it will only gain 10 food so it wasted on it. Feed it blood packs from a maewing. Blood packs give it 200 food and its food drains quite slowly. Just remember to use preserving salts to double the bloods timer.

Easy not try hard taming: Put blood packs in your inventory, and multiple parachute. Let it grab YOU, after a little it'll drop you, parachute down. Repeat, easy. These comments make you think it's hard, it's not.

This upgraded Onyc is insane! Not only is it rideable, it can turn invisible, making it much easier to sneak in and out of enemy territory undetected! However, in the scenario that the enemy DOES detect you, you can confuse them with a loud, shrill shriek, or pick the enemy up!…

Easy taming :

1) Use med brew to heal yourself while you extract blood packs with a blood extraction syringe. About 100 is fine.

2) Agro bats and run away. Wait until a lower level one gets left alone.

3) Get your best armour and clear the area. Put blood packs in your…

A really cool idea for the Desmodus (since it's a vampire bat) is basically give it blood offerings by giving it unconcious dinos to feed onto... or yourself if you're brave enough. The bigger the dino, the faster/better the tame. ALSO I second the petition to make…

As of right now on Tuesday 6/14/22 they use less blood packs then the taming calculator says, I would still bring more then needed though about 80/120 blood packs for 130-150 tames, once you tame one just using basic right trigger atacks on wild dinos will get you blood packs…

When encountering you will want to stay a ways back. It will probably have a far agrro area so you will need to stay back and shoot it. It will likely be with onycs to so you will have blood loss and tons of angry bats. It will reside in caves and will be like a vampire bat so…
